A Shame that Heuer Didn't Think of This Combination
In Response To: Re: Ashamed to say ()

Yes, this one is very pretty, and some real workmanship to get this Monaco dial trimmed up to fit. There's something very nice about the blue color of the dial in this Carrera case, and the juxtaposition of the round case and the square registers . . . would have been a nice one for Heuer to have tried. But alas, equation for it's current value is probably "Cal 12 movement + a Carrera case + trimmed Monaco dial = ? ? ?".

Maybe someone will take a liking to it, and pay up for the creativity and workmanship!!
